Darwinia RTS game
Ambrosia Software has released , a new realtime strategy game title that combines fast-paced action with strategic battle planning. It offers "state of the art fractal generated landscapes with iconic arcade sprites, an intuitive control mechanism, and a story concerning a tribe of video game sprites trapped in a modern 3D game world. The world of Darwinia is a virtual themepark, running inside a computer network built by a computer genius named Dr Sepulveda. Darwinia is populated by a sentient evolving life form called 'Darwinians.'....Unfortunately, the systems of Darwinia have been overrun by an evil red Viral Infection. This Virus has multiplied out of control and must be stopped. Your task is to destroy the Viral Infection and save the Darwinians from extinction." Darwinia costs $30 and requires Mac OS X 10.2.
